We offer a number of ways to connect in smaller groups!
Some of our groups are seasonal following a promotional and sign-up period in January and September each year and run for about 12 weeks.
We also have a few groups that meet every Sunday morning.
We were created to connect to God, connect to others, and connect to God's mission in the world.

EVER THOUGHT ABOUT LEADING OR HOSTING A SMALL GROUP?
If you are interested in teaching a small group or simply offering your home as a meeting place, we'd love to talk with you!
